The Division 2’s next-gen update has breathed new life into the game, giving those on thePS5 and Xbox Series Xa reason to journey back into all that it has to offer. However, the upgrades haven’t been without their own share of problems. Luckily, Ubisoft is taking steps to address one of them in a patch tomorrow.
Those playingThe Division 2on PS5may have noticed that volumetric fog is missing on the system, which has a dramatic effect on the ambiance of the world. Luckily, Ubisoft is planning to address the issue with a fix tomorrow. With a 3-hour downtime starting at 12:30 AM PST, the developer plans to solve the problem and restore the fog to the game. It’s a small change, but one that can have a decent effect on the experience.

Of course, it isn’t the only issue fans have been experiencing on the system. Some users have also reported issues withThe Division 2crashing on PS5, though it’s unclear how widespread the problem is. Some players believe it’s due to connection issues, but it’s hard to say if that’s really fueling the problem or if it’s coincidental. Luckily, the issues seem to be spaced out enough that fans aren’t furious about the problem.
It’s been a relatively successful period forThe Division 2in the last few weeks. Major content updates were originally planned to end with Title Update 12, but Ubisoft has confirmed thatThe Division 2will get new content through 2022. While it hasn’t achieved the same level of success thatDestiny 2has, it’s still admirable to seeThe Division 2’s fanbase get more content simply by being passionate about the game. It’s certainly a good sign for the future of the franchise.
Of course, Ubisoft is also working on aStar Warsproject fromThe Division 2’sdeveloper Massive Entertainment, and while no details have been revealed about it yet, some have speculated that it could be a looter-shooter, which would put it in direct competition withThe Divisionfranchise. That would certainly shake up the genre’s landscape, and it could mean fans don’t getThe Division 3for some time, but that’s purely speculation until Ubisoft reveals more.
For now, though, PS5 players can look forward to the volumetric fog fix while waiting for more updates. There’s a lot of content inThe Division 2for players to run through, but the really interesting part will be seeing what the future holds for the game.
The Division 2is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
